In the animated film "Oh and Ah" the main characters are funny men, opposite in character. The first is Ah, a cheerful optimist, endowed with savvy and a lively mind. The second is Oh, who is constantly nagging and dissatisfied with everyone.
Everyone in the town also has funny names. There's A-I-Ya and Oi and Hey. They have their own character traits, look at life with joy, actively work. And only the neighbors Oh and Ah are constantly competing with each other. But even the same thing ends differently. So, having pricked firewood, a cheerful neighbor quickly folded into a large latch. I could not cope with it – all the wood was scattered in the yard. The simplest need to bring a bucket of water causes the grumpy difficulty. Before bringing the bucket into the house, the merry man will remove all the stones from his path so as not to stumble. Life teaches nothing. Once he stumbles, he doesn’t learn a lesson. On the way home, he steps on the same stone again.
Every new day, Aha delights. He wakes up, not only washes himself, but also cleans his house, washes the sun. Oh, on the contrary, he lives in mud and does not wash himself. He doesn’t like it, he constantly complains about his life.
One day, Oh did not leave his home. Neighbors worried about his health and decided to visit him. In the house of Oha, they saw a terrible picture: the apartment was filled with spiders, all the corners were overgrown with spiders, all the plates, pots, pans were dirty, occupied all the surfaces of the room. The stove is not flooded, there is no food, and the owner of the house lies in bed, pulling a cotton blanket over himself.
Neighbors rolled up their sleeves and started cleaning. They not only took out all the dirt, cooked a delicious dinner, washed dishes, but also took care of the owner himself. Removing him from under the blanket, the men completely transformed him - washed, trimmed, dressed in clean clothes. Now Oh won't recognize himself in the mirror. A different life began for him... close
